What is a Fixer?

A Fixer is a volunteer who is skilled at repairing household items, everything from appliances to electronics to clothing. Everyone is needed and welcome.

What is a Repair Café?

Visitors will bring their items to the Repair Café where they will get help fixing it – from you! Most importantly, community members will learn from you – the fixers – how to do it themselves. At the Repair Café, fix anything from lamps to toasters to computers – you name it! It’s free and all are welcome!

Repair Café aims to reduce the waste that’s sent to landfill and to change society’s throw-away mindset.

Want to bring in an item for repair? Drop-in between 1 pm and 4 pm and register your item in person at the intake table. The event runs until 4pm but we will stop registering items at 3:30.
